Those are so beautiful!! So glad you found the footage! God bless you

[@ReptileMountainTV]

Thank you! You too!

[@LanceKirkman]

@@ReptileMountainTV thank you

[@gyorgydavidesz9300]

awesome video, stunning animals

[@salvatore6539]

Thanks for the video I really enjoyed it. I've been researching getting an anteresia but couldn't decide between a stimsons and a spotted. Now I'm really leaning hard towards the Stimson.

[@mrmouse-ol9pw]

I wish these were available in the US!! Cool video

[@hayleypaigereviews6744]

I absolutely love snakes, I’m studying everything I can to be a better owner for my future danger noodle. Thank you so much

[@cowgurlup9023]

Those have to be some of the cutest noodles iv ever seen❤️

[@ReptileMountainTV]

Awe thank you. They are awesome 😎

[@Gottalovecarpetpythons]

Great video, cant beat those gorgeous little Antaresia and glad l have some for myself.

[@ReptileMountainTV]

They are just wonderful! Perfect lil pythons.

[@wanik4]

TC, you spend so much time producing quality content. It really seems like live stuff is getting popular these days...I think it would be PRETTY FUN to have a blue tongue skink recipe chat and batch cook session and maybe even watch some live skink feeding ;) Sounds like some quality content there!!!

[@ReptileMountainTV]

I like that idea! I will look into something like that in the future :-)

[@mannox775]

@@ReptileMountainTV tc can you help first bts's upper eye lid looks swollen compared to other skinks can you help im kinda worried

[@lexanymendiola3318]

MAN N OX you should go to the vet but it might be substrate irritation I’m no expert tho

[@kaiweitze5899]

Wow! Stunning Video, thank you for uploading! I like Peter, he's nice! Very much know how and his collection is outstanding! Dang, these morphs are mindblowing! Wish i could lay my hands on some of these!

[@mainsqueezereptiles6264]

Absolutely beautiful but major bummer that we can not get these stunning morphs due to Australia ban on export.

[@ReptileMountainTV]

Totally a bummer!

[@CrittaCam]

Can't wait to show you around with all the new changes TC, love the vid mate!

[@ReptileMountainTV]

Can't wait! I really look forward to seeing it.

[@itsme-em9kz]

Amazing mamang

[@eddief_]

I'm getting a eastern blue tongue skink soon

[@i.d.k504]

Me in a few months

[@MrsBlueEyedDreamer]

I just came from your unboxing video where you were hoping to buy a plane ticket one day to visit, and here you are

[@ReptileMountainTV]

Ha so true! It was worth the wait too!

[@katelillo1932]

Such beautiful little scale friends 😊💚

[@ReptileMountainTV]

They are! :-)

[@Error_404_Account_Deleted]

Awesome video.

[@peelit4610]

I love the location differences in simply the wild type stympsons. I mean people spend years with other species trying to get differences like that, and here in Australia half the work is already done for you.

[@ReptileMountainTV]

No kidding! Aren't they just amazing!

[@peelit4610]

Yeah. Definitely. I only have the funds to buy one reptile at the moment to start my collection. Im going with a bluey but lord knows I have snake envy. I will get a stympsons one day, maybe I'll save up enough for a fancy morph.

[@joshualieberman2265]

so much anxiety from him holding so many snakes all at once. I wouldnt have taken that risk.

[@ReptileMountainTV]

They are beautiful though aren’t they. 🙂

[@tinaleighton6390]

I’m glad you found this footage. I have a regular wild type children’s python. He was very nippy when I first got him but has calmed down very well now. He’s about six months old. I haven’t named him yet. Maybe I’ll call him Aussie.

[@ReptileMountainTV]

Aussie is a great name! They can be nippy as babies huh. Such beautiful creatures.

[@tinaleighton6390]

ReptileMountain.TV Yeah, I heard they could be nippy and it was almost funny how many times he bit me :-) but he calmed down quickly and now he doesn’t bite at all. It’s not like a bite from itsy-bitsy snake hurts anyway. Once he figures out he couldn’t eat me he stopped trying.

[@Boudico]

Awesome video. Glad you found it! Curious bedding in those tubs. I need to dig through yours and/or Peters vids to find out what it is (I'm sure it's probably mentioned somewhere)

[@ReptileMountainTV]

I believe it is this...not 100% sure... www.petbarn.com.au/breeders-choice-litter-30-litres#

[@Boudico]

@@ReptileMountainTV Thanks TC!

[@ReptileMountainTV]

Yessir!

[@SuperAlexSarah]

Breeders in the US recommend warm-side/cool-side temperatures for Spotted Pythons at 88/80 F, respectively. NSW summer temps., according to my phone temp app, are as low as mid-50’s night, and often just high 70’s day - much lower. What temps do you recommend?

[@ReptileMountainTV]

90-95F basking and 70-79F cool end… night drops are also okay into the 60s easy. NSW wild sun heated temps can get into the 120s easy. They will bask in the 90-100 range.

[@Philipp17]

Do you think there are Antaresia morphs outside of Australia that no one talks about yet and some day, suddenly, someone claims he bred the morph somehow at his place? I would love to get platinums and marbles into the world.

[@ReptileMountainTV]

Probably will happen sooner than later I bet.

[@ericad965]

Hey TC! I have had my Halmahera bluey, Bean, for about a week now. Bean is two months old. I noticed a few really small white bugs crawling on Bean and I am concerned. I am using repti bark and sphagnum moss as substrate. If they are wood mites, how would you suggest I get rid of them and do I need to take Bean to the vet? Thanks in advance if you already covered this issue in a previous video I haven’t found yet.

[@hal6679]

Would you add vitamin supplements to Omni/insectigold？I have looked for videos liked this but I trust you and your opinion

[@ReptileMountainTV]

Yes if you are not using UVB and even then once a month.

[@chrisreynolds2382]

Can you get albino children’s or Stimsons pythons in the US?

[@ReptileMountainTV]

I don’t believe so. Not legally or ethically anyway.

[@hannahmoeding2231]

I’m interested in becoming a zookeeper and I was wondering what you went to school for in order to become a zookeeper?

[@ReptileMountainTV]

Awesome! I studied zoology and wildlife management. 👍🏼👍🏼

[@pamelakelly5864]

Hi, do Children's pythons require a basking spot or can they live without one?

[@ReptileMountainTV]

They need a heat source

[@tommygunangel]

Why are they called Dirt Snakes?

[@ReptileMountainTV]

Their natural colors are earth tones :-)

[@kolbymills5850]

Hi tc Houston i was wondering if I could feed a blue tongue skink crayfish(yabbies) i saw a guy doing it but i don't know if i can

[@nathanrupley]

Aren't these semi-arboreal?

[@6strings735]

Not really, but they are very adept at climbing rocky landscapes and wedging in rock crevices. They can climb into shrubs and some trees but do not specifically seek trees as much as many carpet pythons species do.

[@smartacus88]

My 1st snake is gonna be a Children's Python! Edit: Probably a male. I want the natural color morph. They look like little Anacondas.
